The Best Tools of Wilderness Programs and Therapeutic Boarding Schools On Our Georgia Campus

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, designed to remove distractions, build trust and foster teamwork. Removing TV, cell phones and other conveniences allows teens to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet basic daily needs calls for coping and teamwork strategies, pushing teens to consider how their contribution impacts others. As they observe staff and leaders who submit to God as the ultimate Authority, they find a reference point for themselves and can more appropriately relate to authority and to others.

For Parents Seeking a Therapeutic Boarding School in Knightdale, North Carolina, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

After teens consistently make responsible decisions and take ownership of their growth, they transfer to the residential program and move to a home on campus. This next step prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also takes place during this phase in readiness for the teen’s return home.

All throughout the program, the teens receive regular counseling and are enrolled in our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, staffed with Georgia certified instructors. We encourage students to go on to college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
